If you’ve ever wanted a piece of Guillermo del Toro’s imagination on your wall, your next movie ticket could put one within reach. Pan’s Labyrinth is returning to theaters for its 20th anniversary, and the filmmaker is celebrating by giving fans a chance to win one of his doodles. The first drawing closed almost as quickly as it was announced, but Collider can exclusively reveal that another chance is coming this weekend.
The anniversary release arrives in U.S. theaters on October 9, with a new 4K restoration and a 3D conversion overseen by del Toro. Tickets are already on sale, so fans can make plans to revisit Ofelia’s world on the big screen. Collider has learned that the final weekend drawing will run from Friday, September 25, through Sunday, September 27. To enter, fans should buy a ticket to Pan’s Labyrinth during the drawing window and send proof of purchase by direct message to the movie’s official Instagram account (@panslabyrinth20), following the instructions in its drawing post. In order to be eligible for the raffle, fans can purchase a ticket to any showing of the film in 3D or 4K after it opens in theaters on October 9.
Collider Exclusive · 8 Questions · 2 Minutes What Fantasy World Do You Belong To? Middle-earth · Grand Line · The Continent · Camp Half-Blood
Pick your magic, your crew, where you want to wake up and who you would rather be fighting, and we will tell you which world you actually belong in. Four are open to you: an ancient kingdom living through its last good age, an endless sea full of pirates, a continent that pays people to kill monsters, and a summer camp where the Greek gods are extremely real and mostly a nuisance.
💍Middle-earth(Rings of Power)
👒Grand Line(One Piece)
🐺The Continent(The Witcher)
🔱Camp Half-Blood(Percy Jackson)
01
What kind of power do you want? Every one of these worlds runs on a completely different sort of magic.
02
Who is travelling with you? Nobody gets through any of these stories entirely on their own.
03
Where do you want to wake up tomorrow? The best fantasy is usually just somewhere you would genuinely like to live.
04
How are you making a living out there? Even in fantasy somebody has to pay for the horse.
05
There is something in the woods. What do you do about it? All four of these worlds keep something unpleasant out there in the dark.
06
Who is the villain of your story? The enemy tells you far more about a world than the hero ever does.
07
What do you actually believe in out there? Every world hands its heroes one rule and asks them to hold onto it.
08
A thousand years from now, how are you remembered? Eight questions in, this is the one that decides your world.
The Map Is Drawn Your World Is…
Four worlds and four completely different ideas of what a good life
looks like. This is where you belong, what it would ask of you, and what you would get back in
return.
The Rings of Power · Prime Video · Since 2022
Middle-earth
You belong somewhere old enough that the mountains have names and
somebody can still tell you who gave them. Middle-earth is for people who think the right
thing is worth doing even when it will not be finished in their lifetime.
This is the only world on the list where doing good is understood as a very long defeat,
fought anyway, by people who will never see how it ends.
You are drawn to grandeur, to white cities and deep forges and the sense that almost
everything you touch is older than your entire family line.
The Rings of Power is set in the last good age before it all goes wrong, which gives
every quiet scene in it a slightly unbearable weight.
You would take the hard road, and you would take it on foot.
One Piece · Manga since 1997 · Netflix 2023
The Grand Line
You want the sea, a crew, and absolutely nobody telling you where
you are allowed to go. The Grand Line is the world for people whose main ambition in life is
finding out what is over there.
One Piece has run for decades on one very simple engine, which is a group of people who
each want something impossible and have decided to go and get it together.
You collect people. Your ideal crew is a set of misfits who were each written off
somewhere else before you turned up and offered them a better idea.
The world is enormous and deliberately ridiculous, and the emotional gut punches land
harder because of that rather than in spite of it.
You would set sail knowing the map runs out, which is more or less the entire point of
it.
The Witcher · Netflix · Since 2019
The Continent
You would rather be feared and useful than liked and useless. The
Continent is a world where the monsters are the straightforward part of the job and the
people are where it all gets complicated.
Witchers get paid to do what nobody else will and resented for existing at all, which is
a trade most people would refuse and you would probably accept.
You have no real illusions about which side is the good one, largely because on the
Continent that question tends to have a disappointing answer.
The best of these stories are not about the fighting. They are about somebody with a
rigid code being repeatedly cornered into caring about people.
You would take the coin, finish the job properly, and be out of town before the story
got told wrong.
Percy Jackson · Disney+ · Since 2023
Camp Half-Blood
You want the myths to be real and loose in the actual world, and
you want to find out at about thirteen that you were never anywhere near as ordinary as
everybody kept telling you.
Percy Jackson takes the oldest stories we have and drops them into car parks and diners,
which makes the gods considerably funnier and a great deal worse.
You would be the kid every school gave up on, who turns out to have been built for
something nobody thought to test for.
The series is genuinely about friendship rather than destiny, and it says so out loud
every time a prophecy tries to get in the way.
Camp Half-Blood is the real fantasy here: a place where the thing that made you
difficult everywhere else is the thing that makes you belong.
‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ Is Coming Back in 4K and 3D

The giveaway is a fitting one for a director whose creatures and characters are recognizable from a single sketch. Del Toro’s Faun and Pale Man have been frightening and fascinating audiences for two decades, and the chance to own artwork from the person who brought that world to life gives this theatrical return a particularly personal touch. According to the team behind the release, the first raffle has already drawn more than 70,000 likes and 83,000 engagements. Of course, the movie itself is the bigger reason to get a ticket.
Pan’s Labyrinth follows Ofelia (Ivana Baquero) as she moves with her mother to the military outpost commanded by her brutal new stepfather, Captain Vidal (Sergi López). There, a mysterious faun offers her a path into another world, though completing his three tasks is anything but a simple escape from the surrounding violence. The anniversary release offers two ways back into that world: the restored movie in 4K or its new 3D presentation. Whether you’ve watched it countless times or only know the Pale Man from images you wish you could forget, October 9 is a chance to see those creatures at theater size. For a few lucky fans, this weekend’s drawing could send a little piece of del Toro’s world home with them, too.
Pan’s Labyrinth returns to U.S. theaters October 9.
